Thanks. I see I have both a .pan and a .pan2 that both have the same permissions (as far as I can tell everything is rw for the users), but I note that in .pan2 servers.xml has a blank password. If I edit this by hand pan ignores it and changes it back to a blank password: >From the command line I get:- WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-9kjCq0/pkcs11: No such file or directory GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name news.pan.NZB was not provided by any .service files Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: Method "CreateCollection" with signature "a{sv}s" on interface "org.freedesktop.Secret.Service" doesn't exist - Richard. -- Richard Kimber Political Science Resources http://www.PoliticsResources.net/ _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
